General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: Newbie doing some research - where to begin?

Most insurance dont care if you have a boiler in the house. They might not let you put it in the
garage though due to gas etc... I would check before you make that decision.

Pros OWB conventional - Mess outdoors, can burn green wood if you get behind.
Cons OWB conventional - low efficiency, smoke/polution, Legel regulations.
Pros outdoor gasifier -clean burning/higher efficiency/less wood.
Cons outdoor gasser- will only burn dry wood, price, heat loss to outside.
Pros indoor gasser - No cost in underground lines, No heat loss to under ground lines or boiler Jacket to outside.
Wouldn't recomend non gasser boiler indoors due to creasote / chiminey fire risk.
Cons indoor gasseer - Mess in house, possible smoke in house, price.
There are plenty of indoor gassers big enough for your load and much bigger.
Hope this helps. J.T.

I would agree with scott that the thicker steel will result in lower efficiency. The key to longevity
is largly threw monitering and treating your water.
